The excellence of Demetra products meets the great love of cooking of the chefs of the Professional Association of Italian Chefs (APCI) in a project that can neither be properly defined as a cookbook, nor even a book. ‘Interpretazioni d’autore’ (‘Artistic interpretations’) is, rather, a hymn to the values of quality.
In a great musical creation, the mastery of the composer interprets the value of each note distributed in perfect harmony across the musical staff. Likewise, the Chefs of the Professional Association of Italian Chefs (APCI) have interpreted the high value of Demetra products and used them to masterfully create unique works of art and taste.
This melodious harmony of notes is what you will encounter in the following pages, which celebrate a happy coming together of a company that makes quality its primary value and a team of chefs who share the same love of cooking. Each and every starring ingredient of this exclusive symphony has been carefully selected and prepared by Demetra, from its place of origin up to its final packaging, and is interpreted, with all due respect, by the skilful hands and knowledgeable minds of some of the most decorated cooking artists Italy can boast. Thus, neither a cookbook, nor a book, ‘Interpretazioni d’autore’ (‘Artistic interpretations’) is intended as a hymn to the values of quality. It is with profound pride that I invite you to dream with me, and savour this work of love.
